Shimano Dura-Ace 9170 C40 Tubeless Wheelset

The inclusion of disc brakes on road bikes continues with its momentum and we are beginning to see some excellent, race-worthy road framesets and wheelsets. Component manufacturers are now releasing groups with hydraulic offerings on its top-tier lines, and the new Dura-Ace ST-R9120 and ST-R9170 mark the first time we've seen hydro disc brakes under the Dura-Ace moniker. Naturally, Shimano has expanded its wheel offerings, embracing discs and drawing heavily from its mountain bike development along with its proven road technology. The wheelset that we are most excited about is the Tubeless Dura-Ace 9170 C40 Carbon Disc Brake Road Wheelset as it pairs our two favorite revelations in road bike tech over the past few seasons, tubeless tires and road disc.
